Alphonse Pierre of Pitchfork praised the mixtape, writing, "The 'Get in With Me' rapper's single-minded focus on getting money and spending it irresponsibly is a perfect distraction from the precarity of real life. [2] AllMusic described the mixtape as "great fun but [it] stays in one gear for so much of the time that its songs become a little indistinguishable from one another." [1]
